The Ealges will take on Die Roten Bullen on matchday 31 in the Bundesliga

Eintracht Frankfurt hosts RB Leipzig in the last game of Saturday’s Bundesliga program at the iconic Deutsche Bank Park.

The home side will be looking to make that home advantage count. It has been a bit of everything for Eintracht Frankfurt in their previous three matches, where they first beat FC Heidenheim by 3-0. This was followed by a disappointing 0-1 defeat against Tottenham in the Europa League, before an encounter with Augsburg produced a 0-0 draw.

In 30 games, they have won 15 matches, drawn seven and lost eight games so far. With 52 points on the table, they are sitting in the third spot in the Bundesliga. The home side will have to be at their best to get a good result at home.

RB Leipzig recorded a draw and two wins in their last three games as they won 3-1 and 2-3 against Hoffenheim and Wolfsburg. Last time out, Holstein Kiel ended thier streak as the match finished at a 1-1 scoreline. In the last six games, they have got 10 points and will hope to get more points in the upcoming games to get a Champions League spot for the next season.

In 30 games, they won 13 games, drew 10 and lost seven games. With 49 points on the table, they are fourth in the league and will have to be at their best to get points, as the rest of the teams will be very well prepared to go past them in the points table. This will be a mouthwatering clash for sure.

Players to Watch

Ellyes Skhiri (Eintracht Frankfurt)

An experienced leader and an all-round midfielder, Skhiri is a first-phase specialist with a top-class defensive awareness, constantly scanning the pitch in order to read the game well. He is a high-energy box-to-box CM who is effective in both boxes and has great stamina, enabling him to cover a lot of ground and press the opponent throughout the game.

He is able to stop counters, he’s effective at making standing tackels or sliding tackles when needed to be, and above all, his timing is top-drawer. Skhiri is an aerial threat, making him great at winning & scoring headers, but when pushing forward, he is also able to shoot from distance. This season, he has played 41 games, in which he provided three assists and got eight yellow cards.

Benjamin Sesko (RB Leipzig)

Sesko is equally effective in a possession-heavy system as he is in a counter-attacking setup, demonstrating tactical versatility that is increasingly valuable in modern football. A key feature in his game is his off-the-ball movement. Whether positioning himself intelligently in the box or dropping deeper to link play. Additionally, his pressing ability, a product of Red Bull’s system, adds defensive value to the team.

Benjamin Šeško has scored 26 league goals since the start of last season. No striker aged 21 or under has more across Europe’s top five leagues.An underrated option in the market… 🤔 pic.twitter.com/t86Djokfvj

With his ability to dominate defenders in the air is invaluable, Sesko also excels in transitions. His quick acceleration for a player of his size enables him to be a significant threat during counterattacks. This blend of physicality and dynamism makes him a unique forward capable of fulfilling multiple roles within a team. He has played 41 games this season in which he scored 20 goals and provided six assists.
